Blissitude Yoga

My journey into the world of yoga and meditation began as a result of my own struggles with stress, anxiety, perfectionism, and the lingering effects of past experiences. I was tired of feeling tired, disconnected, and unable to find lasting relief from chronic physical discomfort. I tried various methods, like acupuncture to energy healing, but it was not until I stumbled upon Therapeutic Yoga Practices, Spinal Release Yoga (SRY) and Kundalini Yoga Practices that everything changed.

The first time I attended a SRY class, I experienced a profound inner shift and felt more grounded. With consistent practice, my mind was less chaotic, I had more ease within myself both mind & body, I was more able to catch myself from going into 'painful loops' and I felt more energized and grounded. I remember driving home and someone cut me off and was really close to hitting my car and I just watched it happen and did not react. I simple said to myself, "huh...interesting". (This is so not what I would have done. There would have been cursing).

Now after practicing for a while, I feel a deeper sense of peace, a letting go of misperceptions-stories of what and who I thought I was, and a newfound self-awareness. My endometriosis symptoms reduced significantly, and the frequency of my migraines decreased substantially. Moreover, the practice of Therapeutic Yoga supported me in coping with the symptoms of PTSD by helping me become more embodied, grounded, and calm amidst life's challenges. And, yes I still have challenges. To live in this human body is to go through the ups and downs of life and experience challenges.
